Al Pacino Confirms That He Has Met With MARVEL; Teases Upcoming Role

Al Pacino recently appeared on Josh Horowitz's "Happy Sad Confused" podcast. When he was asked his thoughts on Guardians of the Galaxy, he revealed that he has met with Kevin Feige, president of Marvel Studios."I've met with the Marvel guy. It's a Marvel how
things happen [Laughs]," He then goes on to
praise Guardians of the Galaxy (you can find this part of the
conversation at roughly the 32:00 mark) before being asked if the
"Marvel guy" is in fact Kevin Feige.

"Yeah. I would imagine that either
there's something he feels is right for me and if I feel-" and before he
can finish his thought, the phone rings and Pacino jokes that it's
Feige calling to stop him from saying anything more.

It sounds like Marvel is lining up a role for the
actor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. We are just going to have to
wait and see what that ends up being.
